Updates & Release Notes

Track the latest improvements, model updates, and data pipeline changes to the Wildfire Detection Dashboard.

v0.4.0August 2026

Worlds Coverage

releaseinfra
  • ·Coverage expanded from Indonesia-only to global FIRMS /world data. One config. The map still starts focused on Indonesia.
v0.3.0March 2026

Frontend Dashboard Launch

releaseinfra
  • ·Initial public release of the Wildfire Detection frontend dashboard.
  • ·Interactive H3 hexagonal grid map powered by Deck.gl and MapLibre GL, showing real-time anomaly scores across Worlds.
  • ·Cell detail panel with time-series charts (Recharts), alert severity indicators, and raw feature breakdown.
  • ·Alert sidebar listing the top anomalous hotspots, sortable by score and recency.
  • ·Pipeline status page showing ingestion, scoring, and delivery stages.
  • ·Stats overview page with national-level aggregation charts.
v0.2.0February 2026

Isolation Forest Model Upgrade

modeldata
  • ·Upgraded the anomaly detection model to Isolation Forest with H3 resolution 5 spatial indexing.
  • ·Added FIRMS VIIRS satellite data ingestion pipeline from NASA LAADS DAAC.
  • ·Improved false-positive rate by incorporating vegetation index (NDVI) and land-cover features.
  • ·Model now scores each H3 cell independently, enabling sub-regional anomaly tracking.
v0.1.0January 2026

Data Pipeline & Backend API

infradata
  • ·Established the core backend API (FastAPI) serving hotspot data and anomaly scores.
  • ·Integrated NASA FIRMS (Fire Information for Resource Management System) as the primary data source.
  • ·Set up automated hourly ingestion of MODIS and VIIRS active fire data.
  • ·Deployed initial H3-based spatial aggregation logic covering Worlds.
